Tag: Computer running slow Warwick

Good Morning, Today we are starting on a Desktop PC at Warwickgates. This PC was dead with no power so first of all we tried a new Power Supply Unit which resulted in no change so at this point we changed tactic and removed the video card and memory boards gave them a clean and retested still the same no power, next was to reseat the processor this fixed the machine and it was able to run. (if it had not worked it could have been a faulty memory stick processor or even the mother board and because of the age would probably have been uneconomic to repair).

Although the machine was now working this was not the end as it seemed some one had been playing on less reputable sites and had filled the machine with malware so much so that the machine ran like an old 286( the PC was running extremely slow), so we cleaned up the machine and got it running much better.

This afternoon we have 2 customers in warwick for the first we had broadband trouble. and the second one we had a machine that was running slow so we performed a malware scan and removed a trojan virus.

This afternoon we are in Warwick to repair a computer that is running slow.

The computer is a laptop PC running Windows XP , after going through all the usual checks registry, Virus check and Malware check, we found that the cause was that there was more than one guard on the web browser and they seemed to conflict with each other.

We are now with South Warwickshire Electrical Services on the All Saints Road in Warwick, We are here because the customer has reported that his computer is running slow and is intermittently rebooting, This one was not booting up to start with and needed a recovery performing on the hard drive before we started, this allowed us to start up the computer and we could then edit the registry , Remove a number of Tool bars , Removed any unneeded programs such as Google Desktop , as well as removing the Trojans, Viruses and other Malware including the removal off conime.exe, backdoor.bot, sdra64.exe.

Good afternoon, We are now with the Sign Depot at Coten End in Warwick , We are here because the customer has reported that their computer system is running Slow, We found and Removed a Backdoor Trojan YBF Virus.

Good morning, Today we are at a customers on the Woodloes in Warwick, we are here for two reasons first is the computer is running Slow and the second is the internet has been intermittent, The Main issue here has been caused by malware which we removed by editing the registry, removing the malware and then running a Malwarebytes scan, The Second issue which did not help the speed was that the processor heat sink and fan needed some minor clean up maintenance as is blocked by Dust, Carpet and cat hair, We removed this and freed up the fan and the machine was back to working properly.

This afternoon we are with a customer in Warwick, We are here to repair a computer that is running Slow.

The Problem here was two fold in that the fan on the processor was clogged with a few years or dirt and carpet which increased the temperature , and the other was a Trojan Virus that was stealing the rest of the processor time, The End Result is a machine that functions much better.

Good Afternoon we are now at a customers on the Percy in Warwick, We are here because the customer’s desktop computer is running slow, To solve this we have to edit the registry and remove any unneed programs and tool bars, check the antivirus and run a spybot scan.

Update this one had a piece of Malware that calls it’s self Registry Optimizer in the add remove programs list it was only part of the issue but pretty much any thing that claims to optimize or speed up your computer is to be distrusted unless proven otherwise.
